Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I don’t think that covid can be blamed for this.
This has been going on in other industries for a while, it’s just filtering through now and happening with GPU’s and other tech products.
Try getting the latest pair of retro Jordan’s on a drop at the Nike store.. whole site crashed, then your pair of retro V are sold out by the time you get to the cart. You start seeing them come up for 1500 a pair on eBay etc same day.
This is not the only thing that effected it obviously, there wasn’t and still isn’t enough 3080 even now. But it was a lot of factors, bots and scalpers being the main one that effected the supply chain once they hit retail outlets.
